Ivocip Ivermectin Oral Paste

Description

Ivocip Ivermectin Oral Paste is a veterinary anthelmintic product used for the deworming of horses. It is specifically formulated to treat and control a broad spectrum of internal and some external parasites.

• Purpose: This oral paste is used to eliminate various internal parasites in horses, including strongyles (large and small), pinworms, ascarids (roundworms), bots, lungworms, and some external parasites like lice. Regular deworming with ivermectin-based products helps maintain the horse’s overall health and performance by reducing the parasite burden.
• Active Ingredient: The key active ingredient in Ivocip Ivermectin Oral Paste is ivermectin, which is a widely used antiparasitic agent. Ivermectin works by interfering with the nerve and muscle function of the parasites, leading to their paralysis and death.
• Administration: Ivocip Ivermectin Oral Paste is administered orally using a syringe-like applicator. The paste is usually given directly into the horse’s mouth, on the back of the tongue, to ensure that the horse swallows the full dose.
• Dosage: The dosage is based on the horse’s body weight, with the syringe typically marked to allow for accurate dosing. It’s crucial to weigh the horse or estimate its weight accurately to ensure the correct amount of paste is administered.
• Benefits:
  • Broad-Spectrum Efficacy: The paste is effective against a wide range of parasites, making it a reliable option for comprehensive parasite control.
  • Convenient Formulation: The oral paste formulation is easy to administer, even to horses that might be difficult to medicate.
  • Prevention of Parasite Resistance: When used as part of a strategic deworming program, it helps in managing parasite resistance by rotating with other classes of dewormers.
• Frequency of Use: The frequency of deworming with Ivocip Ivermectin Oral Paste depends on factors such as the horse’s age, environment, and overall health. It is generally recommended to follow a deworming schedule advised by a veterinarian, which may involve rotating different dewormers to prevent resistance.
